Magnetars are conjectured to be highly magnetized neutron stars (NSs). Strong internal magnetic field and elasticity in the crust may deform the stars and lead to free precession. We study the precession dynamics of triaxially-deformed NSs…

The Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation is less accurate in the presence of a strong magnetic field than in the absence of a field. This is due to the complicated and unpredictable response of electronic structure to the field, especially…

We reinvestigate the structure of a steady axisymmetic force-free magnetosphere around a Kerr black hole (BH). The BH magnetosphere structure is governed by a second-order differential equation of $A_\phi$ depending on two `free' functions…
